Goldenbridge Cemetery is adjacent to the Grand Canal in Kilmainham. Having opened in 1829, it was the first catholic cemetery opened after Emancipation. The small mortuary chapel is constructed over a crypt, and is said to mark the position of a Mass Rock from Penal times. No longer in use for fresh burials as the graveyard is at capacity.
